Barely a week after Memorial Day, we mark the 73rd anniversary of D-Day.
I can't adequately comprehend what our young soldiers were thinking and feeling as they approached the beach, ready or readying to battle the Nazis for a foothold. And I won't try. If you want, or need an account of the horror, read S.L.A. Marshall's account from the November, 1960, issue of The Atlantic.
Nevertheless, in an era when it is easy to take what we have for granted, it is important to remember the sacrifices se you men made so that it could be so.
